SP66 - Pilot Control Spring Kit (GEN2)

CUSTOM MADE IN THE USA

Are you new to operating pilot (joystick) hydraulic controls on mini-excavators and mini-skid steers? Are the controls touchy or jerky? Are you an experienced operator who wants to fine-tune your connection to the pilot controls on your machine?

Our GEN2 Spring Kit exerts controlled tension on the Joystick, facilitating more accurate control over different hydraulic functions such as lifting, lowering, and tilting equipment attachments. By optimizing the feel in the sticks, this kit enhances the responsiveness and efficiency of joystick movement, ultimately improving the performance and productivity of your equipment.

Like our GEN1 kits, our Pilot Control Mod Kits were designed by a custom spring manufacturer, specifically for an AGT KU-18e machine, to provide steady resistance in the controls, improving feel, dampen bounce-back and to help many equipment owners smooth out operation of their machines. 

NO CUTTING REQUIRED. Installation is plug-and-play and requires no special tools. We recommend application of a non-petroleum based grease (e.g. o-ring silicone grease, molykote, etc) to the pistons during install. IMPORTANT: Petroleum-based lubricants damage the seals in your pilot control valve.

Our custom SP66 GEN2 Kits include a total of eight (8) springs per kit. 

BEST FIT - With few exceptions, our SP66 GEN2 Kit will fit all "pilot control" machines and is ideal for new and experienced operators alike.

KNOWN EXCEPTIONS: Rippa R10 Eco machines will not take Spring Pilot kits.

WARNING: The Spring Pilot mod kits are designed for remote-actuated (joystick) pilot controls ONLY. The kits will not work on Direct-Actuated / Forward Control machines. Some machines may have joysticks positioned up by the armrests and still be "Direct-Actuated" (e.g. Rippa R-10 ECO). To ensure compatibility, the controls should be confirmed via inspection under the joystick boot. Please verify compatibility before ordering your kit or contact us.
